Both arrive from the same search for Diwali sweets. One of them advertises 47% off and the other 10%, and it is not the one you would guess.
We read 76 Diwali mithai listings from Amazon's own search results on 26 October 2026 and divided each price by the net weight the listing itself states. The shelf runs Rs. 18.80 to Rs. 337.50 per 100g - eighteen-fold, inside one category. Tinned rasgulla and gulab jamun sit at a median Rs. 20.20; kaju katli and barfi at Rs. 172.25. And the discount badge runs backwards against the rate: the cheapest third of the read advertises a median 26% off, the dearest third 10%. Here is the sweet shelf, priced by weight.
Every price below was pulled from Amazon on October 26, 2026 and checked against the MRP on the listing. Stack them with the live codes on our Amazon coupons page, which the deals desk re-verifies daily.

Rs. 675, stated Rs. 751, badged 10%, Rs. 337.50 per 100g, 5.0 stars from 2 ratings published by Amazon
Why it earned its spot it is the dearest food per gram in the entire read and the far end of an eighteen-fold range inside one search for Diwali sweets.
First, divide the price by the stated weight. It is printed in the title on 40 of the 75 usable listings here, and it separates a Rs. 20-per-100g tin from a Rs. 338-per-100g box faster than any badge. Second, ignore the percentage. On this shelf it is deepest on the cheapest food and shallowest on the dearest. Third, check the review history before the price. Several premium boxes here carry fewer than 30 ratings, and the deepest-badged tile in the read carries none. Fourth, check manufacture and expiry dates on arrival - sweets are perishable and Amazon's return rules for food are not the same as for other categories.

Each selling price, stated MRP, discount badge, star average and rating count on this page came from the product data amazon.in itself serves on its search results, read on 26 October 2026, logged out, from India, with nothing bought and nothing eaten. The queries were "soan papdi diwali", "kaju katli box", "mithai gift box" and "rasgulla tin", returning 76 distinct listings.
Forty of the 75 usable listings state a net weight in their own title - "1 kg", "400 g", "800 GMS". Price divided by that weight gives the rate on every card. Every median, range and third quoted on this page is computed over those 40, not over the 18 seated. Listings that state no weight are excluded from every per-100g figure rather than estimated.
A 1 kg rasgulla tin in this read is listed at Rs. 225 against a stated MRP of Rs. 22,500 - a hundred times the price, producing a 99% badge. That is a decimal-point error rather than a discount, and the listing is excluded from every figure on this page. We do not quote badges we believe to be arithmetic accidents, and we say which one we dropped.
Star averages and counts are Amazon's own figures at the moment of reading. A two-rating or six-rating average is called out as one rather than treated as a verdict, and the single seated listing with no rating at all is seated precisely because it also carries the deepest badge in the read. Nothing here is an editorial score.
This is a price read. No listing here has been ordered, opened, weighed on arrival or tasted, and nothing on this page is dietary, nutritional or medical advice. Descriptions such as "pure ghee", "69% cashews", "sugar-free", "keto-friendly" and "no preservatives" are the listings' own words, reproduced and not verified. Sweets are perishable; check the manufacture and expiry dates on arrival.
Across the 40 weight-stating listings in this read on 26 October 2026, the rate runs Rs. 18.80 to Rs. 337.50 per 100g - an eighteen-fold range inside one category. By type: tinned rasgulla and gulab jamun a median Rs. 20.20, assorted gift boxes Rs. 39.90, soan papdi Rs. 46.00, and kaju katli or barfi Rs. 172.25.
Because of what is in it. The 15 kaju katli and barfi listings in this read run a median Rs. 172.25 per 100g against Rs. 20.20 for tinned syrup sweets - roughly 8.5 times. Cashew is the expensive ingredient and the premium is real rather than invented. What is worth knowing is that the katli shelf also carries the shallowest discount badges in the read, a median 10%, while the cheap tins advertise 26% to 47%.
No. Ranked by unit price, the cheapest third of this read carries a median 26% badge and the dearest third a median 10% - the badge tracks which kind of sweet you are buying, not the value. The deepest badge in the read, 87% off a stated Rs. 2,300, sits on a 400 g box with no published rating at all. Divide the price by the stated weight before reading the percentage.
Usually, but not always, and the gaps are large. A 1 kg Gits soan papdi is Rs. 25.30 per 100g while a 400 g ghee soan papdi is Rs. 46.00 - 82% more per gram, with a deeper badge. But one brand's kaju katli costs Rs. 125.60 per 100g in both its 125 g and 500 g boxes, and a 2 kg combo tin here is within 15 paise per 100g of the 1 kg tin. Check each pack rather than assuming.
That is a question about the seller and the product, not about price, and this page does not answer it - nothing here was ordered, opened or tasted. Sweets are perishable: check the manufacture and expiry dates and the packaging condition on arrival, read the seller's return terms before buying (Amazon's return rules for food differ from other categories), and prefer listings with a substantial review history. Several premium boxes in this read carry fewer than 30 ratings.
